The Hive CLT | JUNE Meetup – Operations & Systems

June’s meetup is all about operations, workflows, and scalability.

We’ll focus on how founders can simplify processes, improve execution, and build operational clarity as their business grows.

Perfect for operators who want to work smarter, not longer.

Who this is for
Operators and founders who want their business to run better without constant firefighting.

What you’ll gain
• Clearer workflows and handoffs
• Insight into where friction usually hides
• Ways to simplify recurring tasks
• Better control over daily execution

Why this month matters
Strong operations free you to think strategically instead of reactively.

Best for you if
Your business works, but it feels heavier than it should.

-----
The Hive is Charlotte’s relationship-first entrepreneurial community built for founders, operators, investors, and business-minded professionals who value meaningful connections and long-term growth.

This monthly meetup is designed to create real conversations, strategic relationships, and opportunities that extend well beyond the room. Whether you’re building a company, scaling a team, investing, or exploring your next move, The Hive provides an intentional environment to connect with people who are doing the work.

This is not casual networking. It’s a room built for clarity, collaboration, and momentum.
